Napa Valley

The grape harvest will be getting under way soon in the Napa Valley. Covers a three-month period ending in November. If you've got a crush on the grape our advice is to avoid the people crush on weekends. It's a bear. (You'll find it less crowded in Sonoma/Mendocino counties if traffic unnerves you.) For information on Napa, a 24-hour hot line will be operating throughout the season. In California call (800) 682-7874. Outside California phone (800) 852-7874.

British Shopper

In case you came away from Britain without finishing your shopping, Judy West says she can solve your problems. She's a professional shopper who lives in Surrey. Says West: "I will buy items your readers wished they had bought while visiting England. Like extra pieces for a china tea or dinner service. Or maybe a sweater from Marks & Spencer. Or perhaps a book they cannot find in Los Angeles. All they need do is to write or call me with the details and I will do my utmost to locate the item." West says to send no money. She'll notify you of cost after she locates the items. Write to West, Braeside, Downhurst Road, Ewhurst, Cranleigh, Surrey, England.vl,2
